Özet:

Islamic law has made arrangements for the need for shelter, one of the most basic needs of human beings. In the classical fiqh literature, although there are some fatwas of jurists on the need for shelter in various works, there is not much information, which may be due to the fact that the law is shaped according to the facts. In later periods, it is seen that in the light of the needs of people and the problems that arose, separate works were written in this field. This literature on zoning, which can be mentioned under the umbrella of Islamic law, set some principles in the construction of dwellings and buildings. It is thought that these principles can be used in zoning and construction, which has come to the agenda again due to the climate crisis, one of the most important problems of our age. It is seen that ecological cities, which are environmentally friendly and based on the sparing use of consumption resources, have common principles and goals with Islamic law. For this reason, this study discusses the role of Islamic law in the planning and construction of these cities. The article focuses on the principles and principles determined by Islamic law that can be applied in the construction of ecological cities. Thereby the contribution of Islamic law to the creation of eco-cities is discussed. Document analysis, one of the qualitative research methods, was used as the data collection method in the study. The sources were limited to studies on zoning in Islamic law and some modern studies on eco-city design. When the data obtained were evaluated, it was determined that there are some common points between the principles considered in eco-city design and the provisions on zoning in Islamic law. These common principles can be summarized as increasing green areas, changing the understanding of consumption, preventing waste, allowing everyone to benefit from nature, preventing all kinds of harm to human and environment, encouraging agricultural production with the revival of dead lands, etc. It is thought that these common principles determined by jurists in Islamic zoning and construction activities will contribute to eco-city design and construction. It is considered important to know the relevant principles, provisions and recommendations of Islamic law in order to carry out a construction activity in accordance with ecology, especially in the urban planning and urban design of countries with a dense Muslim population.
